Do we really change, or do we just get better at hiding who we are?

I’ve been thinking about this a lot. People say time changes you, but I feel like the core of who I am is still the same. I’ve just learned which parts to show to whom. Do you think people genuinely change over time, or do we just adapt to different situations? Curious to hear your perspectives.

People are capable of learning, usually from mistakes that cost them.. But not everyone does. Some choose to blame others, which may not be the point, if the cost still falls on you..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman That's wisdom right there. Blaming might feel better in the moment, but you're still the one left holding it.
